Just Another Disneyland Trip {Round 1}

Even though it seems like we go to Disneyland all the time, we haven't been as a family since last May. And, well, that's just no way to treat a season pass. We lucked out that Miss Sarah and her gorgeous girls wanted to go in January and David's schedule allowed us to make a trip out there.

January was a great time to go because the park was not crowded at all, but a few of the attractions were not going on {like our parade, which is our favorite}. It was still more than worth it to get to spend two full days with some of our favorite California people!

➹ The reunion! ➹

➹ Love their sweet friendship! ➹

➹ Not pictured: Sydney off to the side. She's still not a fan of the characters. ➹

➹ We had never had much desire to wait the typical 45 minute wait to meet Tinker Bell since Olivia wasn't that into her. But, over the summer, she became OBSESSED with the movies and so we were so excited to meet her this time. We went to Pixie Hollow first and Tinker Bell was just the sweetest. She really set the tone for the whole day! ➹

➹ Waiting for the carousel ride. Sarah went and rode the Matterhorn while we took the girls to Pixie Hollow. We planned on getting in line for the Frozen characters, but there was already a 2 hour wait and they weren't even there yet! ➹

➹ I mean, how sweet is this?! ➹

➹ A couple of goofballs. ;) ➹

➹ We saw Tiana on our way to Splash Mountain! ➹

➹ While Sarah took the big girls on Splash Mountain, we took the little ones on the Winnie the Pooh ride {twice}! I love that there is hardy ever a wait for that ride! ➹

➹ Is this not the best picture?! Olivia sat in the very FRONT! And sweet Kendall was so excited to ride it and then ended up not liking it because she got so wet! ➹

➹ David and I took Olivia for round 2 of Splash Mountain while Sarah stayed with these three and introduced them to the Winnie the Pooh characters. She said Sydney was awesome with them! ➹

➹ Sarah was a sweetheart and stood in the 90 minute line to meet the princesses from Frozen and so we took all the girls to go see Mickey's Magical Map. It was a super cute show and the girls loved watching it and seeing some princesses singing songs from their movies. ➹

➹ Sydney is not impressed! Ha! ➹

➹ So glad the girls got to meet them. They LOVE the movie! ➹

➹ Selfie with my sweet girl while riding Astro Orbiters for the first time. ➹

➹ We were so fortunate to be able to see the Small World ride with Christmas lights and Christmas decorations still up. I hope we can go sometime at Christmas to see the whole park decorated! ➹

➹ We had a fabulous day and were excited for Round 2 at California Adventure the next day! ➹
